Henda’s Law Verbiage

If your mammogram demonstrates that you have dense breast tissue, which could hide abnormalities, and you have other risk factors for breast cancer that have been identified, you might benefit from supplemental screening tests that may be suggested by your ordering physician. Dense breast tissue, in and of itself, is a relatively common condition. Therefore, this information is not provided to cause undue concern, but rather to raise your awareness and to promote discussion with your physician regarding the presence of other risk factors, in addition to dense breast tissue. A report of your mammogram results will be sent to you and your physician. You should contact your physician if you have any questions or concerns regarding this report.

Henda’s Law Update

Governor Perry signed Henda’s Law, HB2102, on June 17, 2011. Texas women will now be informed about dense breast tissue and the risk of not detecting abnormalities with mammogram screening. It took effect on Sept 1, 2011.
